Skitch

Work smarter, not harder is a saying that many people are fond of saying in this day and age. If you’re a Mac user you know better than anyone how easy it is to waste time doing common tasks like taking and sharing screenshots from your computer.

How Does Skitch Work?

Skitch is best used for screen capturing a whole window, image or any piece of content that you want to share from your computer. Once you capture an image Skitch will place a frame around it and you can pick from a variety of tools that will help you to easily add text, shapes or arrows to the image.

This program also has the same features that other photo editors have like crop, resize and color change options that can make a photo look old, glossy or stylish. Once you’ve edited your image you can save it to any photo format and then upload it to your Skitch account online or other sites like Facebook or Twitter.
